First Landscapes of the Year

We have been so busy with family matters that little trips have been out of the question for Greg and I........until today.

During April, the road through Teton Park that is closed all winter is plowed and open for non-motorized traffic only. Last year we went there on a bike ride and loved it so much we vowed we would do it every year.

Today the forecast was for clear skies and fairly warm (for Teton Park:biggrin: ) temperatures. It seemed like the perfect time to go. It isn't the best time of day for landscapes, but these areas took a while to get to on our bikes. Don't know how you would do it for sunrise and sunset unless you took equipment to sleep outside--which doesn't sound too appealing to me!

Here are some shots from our day. I'm disappointed because I had Greg take some photos of me so I could show you that I really did do this, but I forgot to remind him to focus with the AF button so they were all blurry. Whoops!

It was a glorious day although I probably won't be walking very well for a few days. We rode about 25 miles in three hours.

Teri .. I was waiting to see these quality images from you. You have a great eye for landscape photography, each and every single image is wonderful in terms of color, sharpness and composition. Very nicely done.

Very nice! I love your eye for storytelling composition. Most of those shots have a nice beginning-middle-end to them. I was wondering how likely it would be to get closer to that first horse in the last photos, but suspect he may not have been cooperative.
